Concept

RangeBounce is a structure-based mean-reversion entry logic. It looks for a sufficiently wide support/resistance range and then tries to buy the lower edge or sell the upper edge.

Idea

A long setup appears when price is close enough to the nearest support level. A short setup appears when price is close enough to the nearest resistance level.

The model can additionally require:

a minimum range width so tiny noisy bands are ignored
M5 and M15 to both classify the market as Ranging
candle close confirmation in the expected direction

Genetic Algorithm Parameters

Tolerance to support/resistance in pips
Minimum range width in pips
Whether M5 and M15 must both be ranging
Whether candle close confirmation is required

Best suited for

sideways or balanced market phases
symbols where support and resistance levels are respected repeatedly
traders who want a cleaner distinction between range trading and breakout trading
